Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago Bug  Game won't display unicodes. (updated)

While testing out some unicode, I noticed that your french, german and spanish lang files, are trying to display characters from an unsupported unicode block (the "General Punctuation" block).
It appears that your in-game font doesn't support the characters
[u8220] (left quotation),
[u8221] (right quotation),
[u8222] (low-9 quotation) and
[u8230] (ellipsis).
You have also tried to write the ellipsis directly in "Chargement…", which the game won't display.

Edit: Also, while your font supports the dollar ("$") sign, you can't write it in-game, because even the unicode for it ([u36]) translates into the button command, and the dollar sign is one of the few characters that doesn't have an official entity either. While a dollar sign is hardly necessary for Amnesia, in case the HPL3 engine is ever used for a contemporary game, you should consider allowing the unicode to display it.
